Frequently asked questions
2018 Acura RLX Sport Hybrid Sh Awd shown

On an Acura RLX, the tire pressure light is a horseshoe-shaped tire outline with an exclamation point, signaling that a monitored tire needs attention or that the monitoring system has a fault. A steady light means one or more tires are at least 25 percent below the pressure shown on the driver’s door-jamb placard, while a light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a system fault. Coggin Acura Fort Pierce in Fort Pierce, FL, checks the RLX tire pressure system, sensors, and tires to distinguish between a pressure adjustment, a tire or valve-stem leak, and a sensor concern.

What the tire pressure light means on an Acura RLX

The tire pressure warning symbol looks like a tire outline with an exclamation point inside. When it stays steadily illuminated, one or more monitored tires are at least 25 percent below the placard pressure on the driver’s door jamb. This can happen after a cold night because tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. An underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, so the pressure should be set at the next stop.

If the light stays on even though the tires appear fully inflated, the system still needs inspection. If it flashes for about a minute during startup and then remains lit, the tire pressure monitoring system has a fault, usually involving a sensor whose battery has run down.

What the diagnosis covers at Coggin Acura Fort Pierce

Coggin Acura Fort Pierce checks the pressure of every monitored tire against the placard on the Acura RLX driver’s door jamb. The visit also includes a scan of each tire pressure sensor’s signal and battery status. Tires are inspected for punctures and leaking valve stems, helping separate a tire that needs air or repair from a sensor that needs replacement.

After sensor or tire work, the monitoring system is relearned. This process addresses a steady warning light as well as a light that flashes at startup before staying on. Drivers can schedule service with Coggin Acura Fort Pierce for a complete pressure and sensor check.

Why does the tire pressure light come on after a cold night?A cold night can lower tire pressure enough to illuminate the warning light.

Tire pressure drops about one psi for every ten degrees. Because an underinflated tire wears faster and runs hotter, the pressure should be set at the next stop.

What does a flashing tire pressure light mean?A light that flashes for about a minute at startup and then stays on indicates a tire pressure monitoring system fault.
